Any Transformer fans?

I still have all my old ones. I even play with them every once in a while. They really were the best toys ever.

That is pretty cool but I don't know if they were the best toys ever. I had a good collection of Mask toys that were pretty cool. Like the gull wing Camaro that could fly or the Bronco II with flip up window armor and gun turrant, or the Toyota van with mini jet inside. Thoes were my favorite, to bad I was such a destructive kid and killed them all with my BB gun and M80s. Yes my parents even let me play with gasoline and fire when I was little.

I think I'll let my avatar answer the "Are You a Fan" question.
As for the link, I don't even need to use it to know what it is. Smokescreen as a WRX, right? I've been buggin my wife for one for Christmas for about a month and a half now. They even have both Solberg's and Makkanin's cars. You can get them on eBay for about $50 plus about $15-$20 for shipping from Japan. They gonna be instantly collectable, though. The next one in the series is SideSwipe as a Viper SRT-10.

While I think that Transformers and MASK are tied as the coolest toys ever, I do prefer Transformers simply because of the entire mythos. The Transformers cartoon had an incredibly intricate storyline, including auguably the greatest anime movie ever released in the States, while MASK had little or no storyline beyond each episode, which sucked becuse it had the potential.

I wish I had all the Transformers I had as a kid...... I'm starting my collection again, though! I saw the Sideswipe Viper in the same place as the link.. Sideswipe Viper I read in another site that the engines of these cars are the robot's gun!

Hrm. I've had a few MASK toys also, but they just weren't as cool. They were more cheaply made, and not as well engineered. I have the 57 Chevy that turns into a 6wd thing with a tank turret, and the black firebird that has negative gullwing doors (they go down) and turns into a boat.... that one is kinda cool because it shoots those razor discs...but... still. Transformers= superior storyline, superior quality, superior design. That's my take on it.

transformers all the way. not even the ninja turtles could take them down in popularity and economic half-life. robotech is a very close 3rd for me.
my prized decepticon: 6 constructacons that form devastator. werd.

Wow! you even remember the names For some reason the whole robot thing just didn't appeal to me as much as cars that just did cool things. As for story lines, I was like 10, hell I though the A-team had a great story line. Try to watch in now and I realize how cheazy it really was, still cool but in a cheazy way.
